Sven's entire run was wild, from tactics, to selections, to beckhams cheating on that ugly orange thing. it was something alot of Royal Marines/Air Force bytched about for months when i was wokring with them. its why i asked you the other day who was the media playing up to in terms of players off the field because england fukkery is unmatched. these guys are young and generally well behaved truth be told.

These current brehs are just too nice and trained. You go thru the squad and really there is only Alli (parents situation) Sterling (shisha pipe, laughing gas, BM drama in his Liverpool days, the tattoo) and Vardy party days which are over, which you go :ehh:, shenanigans. And even with Sterling he is misunderstood, if you hear him speak in depth, you wonder what all the fuss is made by the press is about when it comes to him. He just comes across as someone who knows who he is and is always looking to improve himself. This is evident from going from QPR to Liverpool to City. Sterling been around for so long, people act like he is 28/29, when he is still only 23. He has a different mindset to the other players, probably has alot with how he grew up. Father killed, moved too new country, new environment, being smaller than a lot of his peers, growing up in a tough area. Then moving from London to Liverpool when he was 16, things like that makes or breaks people.

Even Lampard, Rio and Kieron Dyer were all involved in a gangbang sex tape in Ayia Napa back in 99/00

Gazza is the Crown Prince of Phuckery :mjlit:. He literally has too many stories off the field, even his pranks are phuckery filled.

Sven was enough phuckery on his own. Even the the execs at the FA where sharing women :laff:

:mjlit:

It’s all about matchups. Casemiro isn’t going to play. It will be Fernandinho. He is good and solid but lacks pace. From what I’ve seen so far , their mid - forward is more organized than Brazil. They have a solid midfield and Lukaku as a clear forward who may not be technical, but if given service can score goals. I wouldn’t take the Japan game as a barometer for how good they are. They may not play as open and loose against Brazil. If they do Roberto Martinez will go down as the woat coach in World Cup history.

They also come in better shape IMO having breezed through an easy group and resting players in the third game. They can hurt Brazil in the air as well. Meunir and De Brunye are great crosser. Fagner vs Hazard has the potential to be a disaster. Luckily Danilo is fit.

I agree with Fagner matchup with Hazard, that's the only thing im worried about, but i believe William can be a good cover to Fagner lack of pace, also Tite can start with Paulinho, Fernandinho and Renato Augusto. As far as crossing and headers, Miranda and specially Thiago Silva are taking care of business.

The thing is, Belgium modus operandi is to play loose and offensive, and there is where the problem is. Brazil cooks the whole game if its necessary, so in the current situation Belgium will have to attack, not to mention that their defense is horrible this WC.

In this game I do not expect the Brazil back line to hold a clean sheet. Felipe Luis is the better choice for left-back for Brazil and I have NO idea why Jesus has been starting these games with Firminho coming off the bench...it should be the other way around in my opinion. In this game in particular, Firminho's defensive, deep-dropping work rate will be critical. Hazard will be their biggest headache as he cannot be man-marked in this game. Brazil will have to be on the front-foot and suppress Belgium "at-source" because a free-flowing Belgium will expose Brazil's fullbacks over time. This game has the potential to end in a tie if Brazil don't attack early and finish Belgium off. The worst thing Brazil can do (and they have the potential to do this) is to score 1st and then let-off the pressure by just recycling possession and attempting to "manage" the game. They have to be ruthless and hit Belgium at least 2x. Brazil can defend for extended periods but they need an advantage to defend.

Filipe Luis is definitely a starter at this point, no doubt. Is kind dishonest to say Jesus isnt play good in the last 2 games. I know, i really wanna see him scoring (i'm a fan of his former club) but he been essential in the pressure contact with the opposites team defense, creating space for neymar and paulinho, anyway, mostly with tactical shyt. U can see that Tite chooses to keep Jesus and sub in Firmino, in that way Firmino has more freedom to play his game. I believe the game will flow the opposite way, by analyzing how Brazil behaved in the game against Mexico, in a way that Belgium will put the same pressure that Mexico did (or even more) in a way to impose their offensive game (their natural behavior). Like I said, I highly doubt they will wait for Brazil to attack. As long as Brazil can hold Hazard (the only threat at this point) we will be fine. Finna be a good game tho

I will be faded as shyt anyway, not goin to work on friday neither on monday, shyt is going to get wild here :mjlit:

Best part of this world cup is these 4 year experts that come out of nowhere. I was in the barber shop earlier and this cat talking about, "Colombia lost that game cause they didn't give the ball to their best scorer in overtime, Yerry Mina. If he gets the ball and Colombia lets him attack they win the game."

I did a half-turn in the seat almost fukking up my cut like :gucci:
